I'll have to rewatch it with a Catholic lens. I think the last time I did see it was before my conversion
I will await your thoughts when you do see it again. :cowboy:

I've been meaning to watch Vampyr but never sat down to do so.

It's no wonder good silent films aren't American, since Europe was the center of the world in that era. And speaking of Lovecraft, there's actually a recent silent film adaptation of The Call of Cthulhu from 2005 which is really good.


I've watched that version! Extremely good. I withheld mentioning it since its a very Masonic film.
.
Wow, I never thought I'd ever run into anyone, last of all in CathInfo, who'd seen that Cthulhu film. Yes, it's excellent. Quite an accomplishment those lads pulled off. I think they made that film with about $12.

Lovecraft was a seminal writer when it comes to horror. Alas he was also a sick puppy to boot.

I find audio adaptations of his works better than any films.

Absolutely no one comes to close to portraying existential dread in the face of higher beings (i.e. demons) than he does. I still treasure the collection of his works I bought years ago.

Since you posted Die Nibelungenlied, you now have to sit through 16 plus hours of Wagner's Ring cycle!!!!!! Mwahaha!

Well not really. :laugh1: That is a very tough slug through. So as I bid one and all goodnight, here is something that fits the bill.....
